Hello, My 2004 Saturn Vue is making a surging vibration noise in the front end when it cruises at about 50 kms/hr or 1000 - 1500 rpm. It will shift through the gears and as soon as it cruises in 3rd gear the rpms bounce all over the place even when my speed is steady. I recently got new spark plugs to see if this would help the problem as well as a transmission flush, but the problem is still increasing. Please help Thank you

SOURCE: 2004 Saturn Vue shifting problem

You should probably check the shifter cable. I had the same thing happen and then I couldn't shift into 2nd, 4th, and reverse gears. Then the cable snapped and I had to replace it. Be careful "man-handling" the shifter. If you break the shift linkage at the base of the shifter it's about $45 from the dealership. It's cheap plastic and doesn't take much to break. If you really want to know if it's the shift cable and not the gearbox crank the engine, have someone hold the clutch, disconnect the shift cables from the box, and manually shift the gears. If they move smooth, it's probably your cable which would mean there's a kink in it somewhere. You can't fix that. Depending on the VIN you're looking at anywhere from $189 (what mine cost with tax) to a little over $200 (from the dealership brand new). Talk to the parts desk at a Saturn dealership and they can tell you which one you need. Hope this helps

if the car shakes more the faster you go then your tires need to get balanced

I believe the filter is actually a part of the fuel pump module. You have to replace the whole thing. You can contact Saturn parts to verify this.
